Interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) of fiber reinforced polymer composite is an important property for most of the structural applications. Matrix modification is an effective method used to improve the interlaminar shear strength of composite. In this paper, EPON 862/w epoxy system was modified using Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) electrospun nanofibers (ENFs) which were produced using electro...

The effect of lowK polymer passivation on electrical leakage was investigated to evaluate the reliability of polymer integration on device wafers. Polyimide passivation over Al(0.5%Cu) interconnects inlaid in TEOS increases the intralevel leakage current mainly along the polyimide/ TEOS interface. Moisture absorbed in the polyimide, as confirmed by residual gas analysis, further increases the i...

Tetraethoxy orthosilicate (TEOS) was used not only as a precursor of silica, but also as an agent which reinforces the skeleton of silica-gel to prepare an aerogel and resultant silica and silica-alumina with large pore size and pore volume. In this gel skeletal reinforcement, the strength of silica aerogel skeleton was enhanced by aging with TEOS/2-propanol mixed solution to prevent the shrink...

Four-component xerogel films consisting of 1 mole-% n-octadecyltrimethoxysilane (C18) and 50 mole-% tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) in combination with 1-24 mole-% tridecafluoro-1,1,2,2-tetrahydrooctyltriethoxysilane (TDF) and 25-48 mole-% n-octyltriethoxysilane (C8) and a 1:49:50 mole-% C18/TDF/TEOS were prepared. Settlement of barnacle cyprids and removal of juvenile barnacles, settlement of zoospor...

Mesoporous silica materials with a variety of morphologies, such as monodisperse microspheres, gigantic hollow structures comprising a thin shell with a hole, and gigantic hollow structures consisting of an outer thin shell and an inner layer composed of many small spheres, have been readily synthesized in mixed water-ethanol solvents at room temperature using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CT...

We present applications of the twoand three-dimensional general purpose topography simulator ELSA (Enhanced Level Set Applications) for semiconductor manufacturing processes. The first process considered is the deposition of silicon dioxide from TEOS for power MOSFETs. For backend processes in addition to a TEOS process, the deposition of silicon nitride into interconnect lines, where two and t...

Bacterial flagella are particularly attractive bio-templates for nanotubes due to their tubular structures and small inner and outer diameters. In this work, flagella isolated from Salmonella typhimurium were used as templates for silica-mineralized nanotubes. The process involved pretreatment of flagella with aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES), followed by the addition of tetraethoxysilane (T...

Silicon was doped to hydroxyapatite by hydrothermal techniques for higher biocompatibility. Products contained tetra-ethyl-orthosilicate (TEOS) as a silicon source in the range of 0 to 15mass%. In order to evaluate bioactivity of silicon-doped hydroxyapatite, the samples were soaked in simulated body fluid (SBF). Silicon doped samples showed faster apatite forming ability than the undoped sampl...

18. yüzyılın başından itibaren birçok gezgin ve araştırmacının ilgisini çekmiş olan Teos’taki Dionysos Kutsal Alanı’ndaki yapılar topluluğu 2010 yılından sürdürülen araştırmalarla ancak anlaşılabilmiştir. Hellenistik Dönem’in ünlü Mimarı Hermogenes’in eseri olduğu kabul edilen Tapınağı, yamuk biçimli temenos’u, temenos’u dört bir taraftan çevreleyen dor, ion dor-ion karışık düzenli stoa’ları, ç...
